Article Synopsis
- This study investigates how stair-climbing and -descending (SCD) affects glucose, insulin, and insulin sensitivity after eating a mixed meal, hypothesizing that SCD would improve these markers in a dose-response manner.* -
- Results showed significant reductions in glucose and insulin levels after just 1 minute of SCD, with improvements in insulin sensitivity observed after 3 minutes.* -
- The findings suggest that engaging in light physical activity, like SCD, shortly after a meal can be beneficial for metabolic health in young adults.*
Article Synopsis
- Short bouts of stair climbing and descending (SCD) effectively lower blood glucose levels after meals, with this study hypothesizing equal effectiveness in both males and females.
- Thirty participants aged around 24 performed different durations of SCD after eating, with blood glucose levels measured over an hour.
- Results showed females had higher blood glucose levels overall, but both sexes benefited equally from 10 minutes of SCD, suggesting prior studies' sex differences were likely linked to exercise intensity rather than inherent differences.
A single one-minute, comfortable paced, stair-climbing bout reduces postprandial glucose following a mixed meal.

Background And Aims: Postprandial blood glucose (PBG) is an independent predictor of disease and mortality risk. To date, the shortest, single, moderate-intensity exercise intervention to reduce PBG is a 1 min bout of stair stepping during an oral glucose tolerance test. Whether this effect translates to real meal consumption is unknown.
